Haken - Atlas Stone / Cockroach King - Live in Amsterdam 2017

[@paulsc4689]

Some of the most solid vocals ive ever heard

[@josku5]

The six of them work perfectly in harmony with the vocal parts in the cockroach king… I wish I also had a band where everyone could sing 😂

0:00 - Atlas Stone 7:12 - Cockroach King

[@MadCritter]

Holy shit they kill this live. It sounds freaking perfect. The harmonies, the mix, the performance. It’s all perfect.

[@RushBanane]

Came here after having doubts on the vocalist live performances.. got proven wrong !! Congrats

[@untitledswed1661]

Yea they other one with cockroach king is a bit less perfect for sure.

[@MrDivagation]

Wooow, the level of mastery of this live is crazy !

[@lehtspelt]

I wish I could see them live, Cockroach King seems like a killer live song!

[@bonifasiusanggara4742]

Beautiful song, with beautiful vocal, with beautiful technique, this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen

[@prasshanthvp1082]

This is fucking insane!

[@MasterFlarg89]

Why can't I find a live clip of Ross sounding this good in the other live performances after this one. Unless enough people aren't going to see Haken, I've been waiting for tour dates in the US for a little while now.

[@elijahmorgan2170]

Wildest performance I’ve ever seen

[@Hazy777]

Wonderful marriage of Gentle Giant and King Crimson produced a genious kid - Haken

[@AFTOMAATMUSIC]

Gentle Giant & King Crimson are great. but Haken is Haken.

[@yugenjames4078]

Masterpiece

[@thaisfrutu7]

Céus! Totalmente incrível!!

Tantalized by the cockroach and its promise I fantasized about soaring with golden wings (Flying with gold wings) Hypnotized by the cockroach and its promise I was compromised by a treasure That was fit for fools (Lured by a fool's gold) The hunter draws closer to its prey Vacantly I was gazing at the mirage I yearned to be an apostle Of the selfmade man Hopelessly I bathed in my ignorance Desperately toking on the roach of irony My fickle fortune beckoned A treasure fit for fools The hunter draws closer to its prey I blindly wandered down the golden path In pursuit of a misbegotten dream The Great Gatsby whispered in my ear The road from rags to riches leads nowhere The grand illusion beckoned With promises of deceit The Cockroach King sits on his throne With the Midas touch and a heart of stone An empire built on guile and greed A bleeding ground for those who heed The grand illusion faded The hunter snares its prey I fear and loathe the cockroach The mirage melts away The Cockroach King sits on his throne With the Midas touch and a heart of stone An empire built on guile and greed A bleeding ground for those who heed Lured by a treasure that was fit for fools (Searching for the truth) Lost in this labyrinth in search of the truth (With your promises of deceit) Trapped in your kingdom built on greed and guile (Built on greed and guile) Only to find the insects have multiplied The Cockroach King of guile and greed With a broken crown he's left to bleed An empire falling to its knees A bleeding ground for those who heed I longed to be a disciple of the cockroach (Blinded-by-the-grand-illusion) I was hopelessly (Blackened-wings-to-fly) (The roach of irony) Choking on the roach of fallacy Thankfully (Burning-ashes-of-the-hunter) (Actually when longed to be a disciple) When the mirage finally melted The impurity (Scattered-in-the-sky) (Flying with black wings) Of the cockroach was revealed to me

[@leboyaunt]

Hearts will burn come what may With lessons learned along the way To free myself I make a choice Just to be heard I lose my voice Finding strength in solitude I fight to fly with much to prove Is this the way it's meant to be? I risk it all I will not fall Carry the weight of the world On my shoulders Rise to the challenge I set myself Salvation waits without reprieve I'm on a razor's edge and it cuts my feet As good as life will ever get I wish that I could give it up and go home "The blood drawn from the Atlas Stone It draws a path from hell to home" Fight to survive Succumb to the path Conquer the fear and nothing will fail The quest to define this strunggle of mine Gravity defied I climb beyond heights Carry the weight of the world On my shoulders Rise to the challenge I set myself Shadows of doubt creep into the light A glimmer of hope never out of sight Out of sight Paralyzed under supressive fire Holding firm against a thin red line Out of mind Shadows of doubt creep into the light A glimmer of hope never out of sight Out of sight Paralyzed under supressive fire Holding firm against a thin red line Out of mind Carry the weight of the world Rise to the challenge I set myself Carry the weight of the world On my shoulders Rise to the challenge I set myself

[@Despicablehobbit]

Love the fight to survive section, how it's like a call and response round. So creative

[@dewantawidyaswara221]

[@daweka666]

Add Between the Buried and Me and your list of prog metal gods is complete 🙂

[@eduardoGentile720]

Gentle Giants, king crimson and Radiohead too, haken are insane

[@manray666]

Like dream theater with better vocalist

[@jonessii]

with a better everything

[@samueliaho8193]

@@jonessii definitely not guitarist, and composing in general. Their music is fresh though, but there is not as much depth as in average DT song. They bring much more elements and different feelings in one song than DT and they are a bit more fast paced in terms of advansing (there is not as much "waiting" inside the songs, but they lack the amount of depth DT has because I need more time to "ruin" a song/album by listening to it too much with DT songs than Haken songs :D And DT songs usually take you through a longer journey in terms of the atmosphere development throughout the song. I'm not trying to dislike Haken, they are amazing but I'm just stating shortly that they are NOT better than DT, and they have a long way to go there, though they are well on the path.

[@scottbarr2889]

@@samueliaho8193 Dream Theater is just wankery to me. And James Labrie is the epitome of that. I cringe every time he opens his mouth. Just awful 🤮 Haken is so much more tasteful.

[@untitledswed1661]

​@@samueliaho8193well sure... But its also matter of opinion.
